GPU Set up application failing to start

New Member

Hi, I just finished building my new computer
My gpu is XFX R9 290x Radeon installed correctly fans react when computer is turned on
I'm having a problem starting the set up installation from the provided disc, it seems to not respond when I try to open it.

Does anyone know if this card is compatible with Windows 8?
If so is the set up application not responding because I need to find the correct driver online?

Any help would be really appreciated I'm new to windows 8 and the employee that sold me it told me they fixed there issue with Video card compatibility

Appreciate it yea I bought Windows 8.1 forgot to mention that haha
Seems to be working now I just ran compatibility trouble shoot and it launched right after I'll download the latest once I solve my internet issues haha
Thanks again + rep incoming
